Nous avons eu beaucoup de circulation & avons appelé pour prévenir que nous serions en retard de 20 à 30 minutes. Le personnel a été très compréhensif & nous a même offert une soupe ainsi qu'un délicieux pâté avec du pain frais. Un geste très apprécié.
Le gravlax de truite était parfaitement équilibré, le carré d'agneau était cuit exactement saignant comme demandé, & le Death by Chocolate était incroyable. Je mange rarement des desserts, mais celui-ci était parfaitement équilibré & pas trop sucré.
Une expérience mémorable. Nous reviendrons avec plaisir.
Fantastic food & wonderful hospitality.
We were driving from the South Shore & got caught in unusually heavy traffic, so I called to let the restaurant know we'd be 20-30 minutes late. The staff were so understanding, & when we arrived they even treated us to soup & delicious pâté with fresh bread. Such a thoughtful gesture.
The Trout Gravlax was beautifully balanced, the Lamb Rack was perfectly cooked rare, & the Death by Chocolate was outstanding. I rarely eat desserts, but this chocolate mousse was rich, smooth, & perfectly balanced without being overly sweet.
A truly memorable dining experience. We'll definitely be back.
Il y a de ces restaurants où l'on va une première fois & dont on garde un bon souvenir. Mais quand on y retourne la 2e fois on est déçu. Ce n'est pas le cas avec le Pégase!
Tout était excellent!
Nous avons pris le potage, la salade, les profiteroles de boeuf braisé & fromage de chèvre, le magret de canard, la bavette de bison & pour dessert, le mourir de chocolat.
Tout était parfait l'harmonie des saveurs était excellente!
Je le recommande fortement, & en plus c'est un apportez votre vin!!!
the food tasted no good. My beef was dry, firm & with weird smell. The dessert wasn't good as well. No one changed utensils after each course. The staff gave me the bill when I just got my dessert

Although the space is small, the atmosphere feels very cozy & welcoming.
Bread is served with butter & pâté, which instantly wakes up your palate. I especially loved the appetizer - braised beef & goat cheese profiteroles. The sauce is rich but not heavy at all, & the light, tangy red sauce on the side balances it beautifully.
For the main course, I had the shrimp pasta. It's tomato-based & looks quite simple at first, but the flavors are surprisingly rich with plenty of ingredients. Every bite was satisfying.
Dessert was apple pie with ice cream. The apple pie is sweet with a pleasant acidity & a strong cinnamon aroma, which pairs very well with the ice cream. The only small wish is that the ice cream portion could be a bit bigger.
Large portion at a reasonable price! Foie gras in their appetizers is a must-have!
Really recommend the lamb cause it's so juicy & tender. We are also impressed with the duck breast & it comes with very good cheese.
However, the desserts are too sweet for us….my bad
Sincèrement je vais à ce petit resto français depuis 20 ans! Un apportez votre vin, de bon plats & une ambiance chaleureuse, c'est parfait. Ici une bonne joue de boeuf braisée tellement bonne. Mon entrée préférée: leur foie gras au torchon. & un dessert complètement chocolaté. Merci d'exister après toutes ces années ☺?👌🏻🤍
Le Pégase is one of the top French restaurants in the city. You get a set menu to choose 4 dishes (soup/salad, entree, main dish & dessert) & meal is priced as per the main course. The dishes are fresh, unique & totally worth the money. The place is incredibly small & usually packed (because of how good it is) which means that it's difficult to have a conversation without overhearing other tables. I would definitely come back here for special occasions.
We've been to Le Pegase several years ago & was really impressed by their food in term of their taste & presentation. The soup/salad, appetizer & entree are at expectation. I especially like their bison steak, the meat is medium-rare on top of meshed sweet potatoes, beans & bok choy. However, the pavlova was too hard to eat, kind of like over baked meringue. & the dessert of the day is three mini-chocolate puff, that can be easily get !at Costco. Anyway, the waiter was polite & efficient. The overall experience is nice.
Nestled in-between homes was this cute & cozy restaurant. Everything from the starters to the dessert were great! I tried the beef profiteroles, joue de boeuf & the tarte tartin. My husband had the bison bavette for his main but was a bit disappointed with the flavour - it did not taste like bison, it tasted like beef. He had the pavlova for dessert - it is hard to choose which was the better dessert option - the tartin or the pavlova as they were both great!
The cons of the evening were the service - the waiters didn't take time to explain the menu options even though the menu is small & they aren't very attentive (they didn't
refill our water unless we asked them to). The AC also was not on so it was very hot & sticky inside the restaurant.
Overall - great food & we would recommend this BYOW restaurant!
